It is always a few that ruin it for the many.... when will people realize
this is history and as such needs to be preserved? I too find it
inexcusable that people charge such exorbitant fees for information that IS
history and should be available to the public. Calvary cemetery wants to
charge me $75. to tell me who is buried in a family plot. They tell me it
is a 5-6 grave plot and I know of one person buried there but they refuse to
tell me the other family members without a pre-paid fee of $75.00!
Outrageous.

What I was told by Bernadette last summer, the Albany Diocese decided to
allow this group to come into the church and remove the records for
transcription. It might seem to some people that Bernadette is
uncooperative, but she can only work with the information available to her
and for an extremely long time, these documents have been out of her hands.
I have not heard the status of the transcription project but was
disappointed to hear that the group of volunteers transcribing them will
charge a fee to review them once the project is completed. Also in the past
people were allowed to review documents unsupervised and there are many
pages of information now missing. Individuals are no longer allowed to look
information up themselves because of this. (I can't blame the church for
protecting documents that are irreplaceable).
